Overlocking Thread

High-Quality Overlocking Thread

The thread you use has a big impact on the finish and durability of your garment. For machines like overlockers or sergers, it’s important to choose a thread designed to run smoothly without causing breaks or tension issues.

Overlocking thread is a must-have for any sewing kit. We stock a wide range of options, from classic black and white to vibrant colours and rainbow-effect thread sets.

Made from 100% polyester, our overlocking thread offers the perfect balance of strength, stretch, and durability. Explore our collection to find the right match for your next project!
